Silas X Dawn (Book #1) DISCLAIMER: This book includes references to mature themes A Captive Princess. A Demonic Beast. The Obsession of a Lifetime. In the distant Kingdom of Vesperia, Dawn Hawthorne, or the "Ice Princess" as the nobility call her, yearns to escape her suffocating confines. Desiring to shatter her shadowed past, she concocts a daring escape plan--crashing the King's annual ball. Her bold scheme fractures appearances, intertwining her fate with Silas Grimwood, the enigmatic Demon Lord, who seems to harbor a sinister fixation on her. When her escape attempt fails, Silas extends a proposition: her freedom for her hand. As unrest stirs across the lands, and murmurs of impending war darken the horizon, Dawn's heart sits on a precipice. She finds herself torn between her elusive freedom and a growing, shadow-laden affinity for Silas, a man enshrouded in secrets. In "The Demon King's Bride," a tale of passion, intrigue, and redemption unfolds, as Dawn navigates the treacherous waters of her past and present. While the destinies of the Demon King and the kingdom of Vesperia continue to intertwine, they must confront the darkness within one another, for their bond may just be the solution.
